Bell's palsy is the most frequent type of peripheral facial paresis. Its cause is unknown. The prognosis is good in 85% of patients. Based on theories about its pathogenesis, antivirals and corticosteroids have been tried. In 6 studies with antivirals and 9 with corticosteroids (most ofthe studies were methodologically flawed), the efficacy of these treatments was not demonstrated.
贝尔面瘫是周围性面瘫最常见的类型。其病因不明。85%的患者预后良好。基于其发病机制的理论，人们尝试了抗病毒药物和皮质类固醇。在6项关于抗病毒药物的研究和9项关于皮质类固醇的研究中（大多数研究在方法上存在缺陷），这些治疗方法的疗效并未得到证实。
